Comments about Lexar Lexar 8 GB, 80x PLatinum II High Speed Series, Compact Flash Memory Card:

I went on vacation and took this card as my primary media on a 50D Canon DSLR. It work great, day and night. I really love the writing speed, better than my backup card.
For a day of shooting, as much as I shoot, the Lexar *G gave me good performance. I downloaded my pictures every night in less than 10 minutues

Comments about Lexar Lexar 8 GB, 80x PLatinum II High Speed Series, Compact Flash Memory Card:

This is an incredible deal on an 8GB CF memory card made by Lexar. I should have bought more than the two that I ordered. They are not the fastest cards out there, but what do you expect for the super low price? I bought them to use for personal use and thought I might also try them on a shoot using them on something slow, say a product shoot assignment, nothing requiring lightning speeds. I used them on my Nikon D300 and D700, and they have operated perfectly and without much delay at all under the conditions that I am using them. The cameras are fast and they record quickly on these cards. I would not expect anyone to use them for a Wedding shoot or Sporting Event where speed is critical, but for a shoot that is slow paced, or perhaps portraits of adults (kids require the max out of your equipment), then these cards are fantastic. With a transfer rate of 80x they are not turtles either. Just do not expect the performance of a 300x card that would cost you $100 or more and you will be happy with these cards. Also be smart. You do not take an elephant gun when you go hunting for rabbit, and you don't go to a gun fight with a knife. Know what you need in your camera for the assignment before you put any card in it and you should be fine, especially with a quality manufacturer's product. You can not beat the price for this size card and to top it off they are from LEXAR, one of the world's highest quality memory card manufacturers. These are 8GB LEXAR Platinum II 80x CF Cards. Need I say more?

Comments about Lexar Lexar 8 GB, 80x PLatinum II High Speed Series, Compact Flash Memory Card:

This is a perfect compliment to my existing memory cards, for use in all day studio shoots, where Max Speed ie continuous shots dont come into play as often. That said, this is an inexpensive larg(er) capacity card that keeps me focused on the shoot rather than how many shoots till the cards full.
